Group member Craig Andera is speaking about Clojure at this month’s ALT.NET meeting. It’s being held at the Motley Fool’s offices in Alexandria, 5 minutes from the Metro stop, on Wednesday, January 27, at 7pm.

C# has been adding exciting new features with every release, but many of these have been available in other languages for years or even decades. By examining some of the features of these other languages, we can hope to glean what’s in store for the future of C#. Clojure is a JVM-based Lisp with an integral and interesting approach to concurrency. In this talk, we’ll examine those features, after a brief introduction to Clojure syntax.
